1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. The Bluetooth Technology

Bluetooth is a worldwide standard for the wireless exchange of data between two
compatible devices. It utilities short-distance radio link technology and replaces the
traditional cable connections to enable wireless connections between desktop and
laptop computers, cellular phones, scanners, digital cameras, printers and other
devices. You can now transfer files between two computer, dial up to the internet using
the host computer’s modem or a cell phone, or even share a network connection
without literally attaching your cables to a device. To put it simply, Bluetooth unplugs all
our cables and lets you forget about cable clutter for a change.

1.2. What is Access Point

The Bluetooth Access Point is part of a family of network access solutions that create
Local Mobile Networks (LMN) of high -speed wireless connectivity. It is provides a
communications link to local networks and the Internet for mobile devices equipped
with Bluetoothwireless technology.

The basic Web Interface let user can monitor and configure Access Point and all of
Bluetooth devices information in anywhere.

Locator™ is a multi-purpose cross-platform PC utility that can manage all bluetooth
devices in a network through its simple interface. It is an ideal tool for auto-IP
assignment, IP settings, firmware upgrades, and Web Interface discovery.

If you have successful gone through the Quick Installation procedure in a
DHCP-enabled network, you may want to monitor the Bluetooth activity on your
Access Point through the Web Interface.
Information page will display System Information such as the Bluetooth name of the
Access Point, as well as, its firmware version and MAC address. It will also display

3.1.1. Accessing the Web Interface

If you have access to a DHCP server, it will assign all the parameters needed for your
Access Point to connect to a network. Assignment through DHCP is the default setting.
There are two simple ways to find out the IP address of your Access Point that you will
need to access the Web Interface:

Using your Bluetooth Client:

1. Start the Bluetooth application in your client.

2. Search for devices

3. Choose Bluetooth Access Point from a list of found Bluetooth devices and
conduct service inquiry

Your client will also display its IP Address next to the Access Point’s Bluetooth name.
